Fred wants more US made bullets put in Israeli guns so that thousands of Palestinian kids can be gunned down in cold blood. What an advocate against gun violence
"There I was, an 18-year-old on my first day of university, crying on my bed. I could not understand what I had done to deserve such hatred."

If the oil lobby was spending $50M on a senate race in favor of one candidate, it would be glaringly obvious what's going on, but when it's AIPAC doing it, calling it out is deemed antisemitic.
You support genocidal mass shootings ever single day when the victims are Palestinian kids. You should have been kicked out of the democratic party long. No one gives a shit if you leave.
Message for all of those progressive DSA punks all over my Twitter today over my concern for the Democratic party moving away from me. You are the same group who didn't vote, or engaged in protest votes, in the last election. You are the reason Kamala Harris lost. You are the reason we have Trump. You never did care about the party. You never cared about the work to reduce gun violence. You only cared about pushing the party away from Israel. Nothing else mattered to you and Trump is the result.
I DON'T CARE ABOUT YOUR OPINION NOW!!!

The following Democrats 103 voted yesterday to cut aid to Israel.
Minutes later, they had the chance to cut aid to Jordan.
Not a single one voted yes.
This was never about ending foreign aid.
It was never about opposing foreign wars.
The target is the world's only Jewish state.
Palestinians have the right to kill Israeli soldiers violently invading their land under international law. That's not radical, it's a basic right of occupied people. Saying Israel can mass murder Palestinians & Palestinians should sit on their hands is the extremist position
Today, I voted against an amendment that would eliminate all U.S. aid to Israel – including funds for humanitarian aid, peacebuilding programs, and refugee resettlement. Ripping the rug out from under our ally amidst active attacks from Iran, Hamas, Hezbollah, and other sworn enemies of the U.S. and Israel would endanger not only innocent civilians and U.S. personnel in the region, but also our national security here at home.
Current U.S. funding for Israel is not, and should never be, a “blank check.” It is subject to congressional oversight, longstanding laws, and a 10-year agreement signed by then-President Obama. This agreement expires soon, and for the U.S.-Israel alliance to continue standing strong, reforms are desperately needed.
We cannot turn a blind eye to the horrors being committed by the Netanyahu government against innocent Palestinians, attempts to annex the West Bank, or violence by Israeli settlers against Palestinians in the region. Israel must uphold international humanitarian standards and adhere to the laws of armed conflict, even when those who seek to do harm to the country and its people might ignore those principles.
The U.S. has both a moral and strategic imperative to ensure Israel can defend itself. I have been steadfast in my support for funding to protect innocent civilians – funding that this amendment would immediately end. At the same time, as Israel continues to evolve economically, the terms of U.S. aid to Israel should also evolve. To be clear: under future agreements, we must ensure Israel abides by the same terms we require of other allies purchasing U.S. arms.
As we renegotiate the terms of the agreement, the U.S. should maintain an ultimate goal of fostering long term peace in the region. That process should not fall solely on our shoulders, but also on a coalition of nations, and should include economic, diplomatic, and military support.
White liberal women politicians have a problematic record with Palestinian, Lebanese, Iraqi, Pakistani, Yemeni, Libyan, Somali, and Afghan civilians, while trafficking in anti-Arab racism & Islamophobia in the US. And yet these genocidal monsters keep getting elected to power.

@WajahatAli I honestly believe that an organization like AIPAC would spend $50 million to to defeat any candidate campaigning with Hassan Piker after the truly outrageous and disgusting things he has has said about Jews. I am definitely against superpac money. But let’s get real.
The Palestinian right to resist Israeli military occupation isn't up for debate. Occupied people have the right to resist their violent occupiers by force. Palestinians aren't asking for permission. Native people will choose the contours of their liberation struggle
NEW: Hakeem Jeffries recently received AIPAC PAC's largest ever earmarked contribution to his joint fundraising committee. Today, he came out against cutting billions in Israel aid. https://t.co/FdktxbTtx3
It doesn’t matter if the man killed by ICE in Maine was authorized to work in the United States or not. It doesn’t matter if he had a social security or not. ICE should not be killing anyone. Period.
